Chapter 362 Tea party invitation and secret spy! (2-in-1)
After Kunoyuanichi's Dawn warship left Impel City, it went to the Shampoo Islands. After a brief stay on the island, the successfully coated warship sailed away from the Chambord Islands under the supervision of the Navy Headquarters. Harbor and headed to Fishman Island.
On this return trip, Kunienichi did not plan to return to the New World through the Navy's secret passage, the Red Canyon. Instead, he planned to pass by Fish-Man Island and see the development of the Fish-Man Navy under Jinbe before returning to Thunder God Island.
After learning that Jiguo Yuanyi, Yixiao and others were coming to Fishman Island, Dragon Palace City started to get busy early that day.
Unlike the people of Dressrosa, the fishmen and mermaids on Fishman Island have no resentment towards Jiguoyuanyi.
After the people from Guoyuan broke into the Holy Land and were deprived of their positions as generals, Dressrosa and Fishman Island were kicked out of the ranks of alliance countries by the World Government. The people of Dressrosa were originally protected by the navy, but were kicked out of the ranks of the participating countries, which had a considerable impact on the ordinary people.
But Fish-Man Island itself is isolated from the world, and even the residents on Fish-Man Island have been harassed by pirates since the Great Pirate Age. And ever since Tsukuni Enichi asked Jinbei to establish the so-called navy branch on Fishman Island and hang the flag of the new navy.
The pirate-infested situation on Fish-Man Island has completely changed.
It is precisely because of this that the entire Fishman Island, including King Neptune and Princess Otohime, as well as the ordinary people, have a very good impression of Tsukuni Enichi.
As for the possibility that Jiguoyuan completely destroyed the connection between Fishman Island and human society?
This kind of thing is really nothing to ordinary fishmen and mermaids. They have no good impressions of the vast majority of humans. After so many years, they have not had much contact with humans on land. Therefore, even if contact is completely cut off, it does not matter to Fish-Man Island.
When Tsukuni Enichi's ship entered the port of Fishman Island, the guards on the entry pier quickly greeted them. Jinbei, who was taking a short rest in the guard box at the pier, also immediately received the news and came out.
Under the leadership of Jinbei and a group of guards, Tsukuni Yuen and his party went to Ryugu Castle in a mighty manner, and were warmly received by King Neptune.
During the banquet, King Neptune asked about the attack on Impel Down City by Jiguoyuan and his group some time ago. With Princess Scarlet’s personal explanation, King Neptune understood the whole story, and then treated Jiguoyuan and his group. He was even more enthusiastic and kept toasting Ji Guoyuan.
Jiguo Enichi is actually not good at such social activities, and he has never drank. Fortunately, he has a special constitution. Alcohol has no effect on him at all, so he faced Nip who was toasting enthusiastically. King Dun, the successor to the country is bound to accept all comers.
This banquet can be regarded as a feast for the guests and the host.
After the meal, Tsukuni Enichi went to visit the new naval branch of Fishman Island at the invitation of Jinbei, while Cyrus, his wife and daughter, accompanied by Princess Otohime, went sightseeing on Fishman Island ,walk.
After all, Scarlet is the daughter of King Riku. This banquet is not only to receive Enichi Jiguo, but it is actually also used to receive Scarlet and the others.
Princess Otohime was not the only one who accompanied Scarlet and the others on their sightseeing walk. In addition to some guards, Princess Otohime also called several of her sons. At the same time, the newly born mermaid princess Shirahoshi was also lying on the bubble chair. Go up and be taken out of Dragon Palace City.
The young Rebecca came to Fish-Man Island for the first time. The mermaids who only appeared in fairy tales were now vividly displayed in front of her eyes. The sightseeing trip under the sea also made the young Rebecca... Feeling novel, the beautiful scenery on Fishman Island that was completely different from that on land also made Rebecca intoxicated.
The "dark" experiences in Judiciary Island and Impel Down City were quickly buried deep in Rebecca's memory under the wash of beautiful things.
Rebecca, who had become a bit timid and shy after coming out of Judiciary Island, gradually became cheerful.
Naturally, Cyrus saw his daughter's transformation, and the heart that had been hanging on her for this period of time was finally completely let go.
With nothing to worry about in his heart, Cyrus was finally able to enjoy the rare leisure time.
Scarlet could feel her husband's relaxed state now. During the walk, she hugged Rebecca, who was already tired from walking, and gently nestled against Cyrus's chest. She said with some expectancy:
"Cyrus, how wonderful it would be if we could always be like this, without having to live a life of fear and complete freedom!"
"The world is so big, and there are probably many more beautiful places that Rebecca and I have never seen before."
"I really want to see it with my own eyes! Just our family together."
A simple wish, for Scarlet, is actually an unattainable luxury.
"Sorry Scarlet."
"It's my fault, I couldn't give you this."
Hearing this, Cyrus also understood his wife's thoughts, gently put his arm around Scarlet's shoulders, took Rebecca from Scarlet's arms with one hand, and apologized at the same time, showing some self-blame.
"Don't think too much, I'm just feeling emotional."
"I am the princess of Dressrosa, and I know exactly what responsibilities I shoulder."
"The same goes for you. Mr. Jiguo Enichi is a man with great ambitions. Just follow him and do what you should do."
Scarlett was a gentle and virtuous wife. She could feel Cyrus's difficulty and knew what Cyrus really wanted to do. Seeing the look of remorse on Cyrus's face, she comforted him softly.
Cyrus didn't say much, he just hugged Scarlet hard and quietly enjoyed this rare leisure time for their family.
Princess Otohime, who was helping to meet the way, noticed that Cyrus and his wife were leaning on each other and stopping to watch the scenery. She didn't rush her. She smiled and walked to Shirahoshi, who was still a baby, and gently played with Shirahoshi's "little" hands with both hands. For Little White Star, I have the simplest wish as a mother:
"Shirahoshi~"
"I hope you can grow up healthy, have a group of friends you can talk to about everything, be able to do the things you want to do, and be able to be with people who really like you."
"Jinbei, you mean...an invitation from Cake Island?"
"Not only did you invite King Neptune and Princess Otohime, but you were also invited?"
Just when Cyrus and the others were immersed in a peaceful life. After having a brief look at the branch's construction, Kunoyuan Yi, Yixiao and others entered Jinbe's office at his invitation.
After closing the door, Jinbe revealed a big news to Enichi Tsukuni.
Cake Island is the station of BIG MOM Charlotte Lingling in the new world. Charlotte Lingling was once a crew member of the Rocks Pirates, and was a figure of the same era as Whitebeard and Roger.
Nowadays, the bounty is as high as 4.388 billion Baileys, and this bounty was already more than ten years ago. Charlotte Lingling has not "shown herself" and done anything in person for a long time. Now Big Mom Many things in the pirate group are done by Charlotte Lingling's sons and daughters.
For example, her son, Katakuri, who is now 32 years old, is already a big pirate with a bounty of 860 million, and even Katakuri rarely comes forward to "do things" nowadays. The ones who went out more were his younger brothers and sisters and some of the pirate group's cadres.
Charlotte Lingling's Big Mom Pirates can be said to be one of the behemoths in the new world. Even Tsukuni Enichi couldn't help but pay attention to the information about this pirate group.
"Well, the envoy from Cake Island came some time ago. He is from a race called the Foot-Clan, and is known as Baron Dandan."
"Age, almost 30 years old."
"The purpose of coming to Fish-Man Island is twofold. One is to send invitations to King Neptune, his wife, and me, and invite us to Big Mom's tea party to celebrate her newly-born daughter, Charlotte Flampe. The full moon; there is another purpose, which is to purchase cakes.”
"The cakes on our Fish-Man Island are made from different materials and methods from those on land, and have different flavors. I heard that Big Mom likes the cakes produced on Fish-Man Island very much."
In Jinbei's office, everyone was sitting around the coffee table, including Tsukoku Yun and others. Listening to Jinbei's words, they all began to think in their hearts.
This was the first time they had encountered an invitation to a tea party from a pirate.
"Not only do pirates spend money on purchases, but they also send invitations?"
"This matter sounds new."
Xiong's knowledge was slightly less than that of others. Slave life was the "main theme" of his first half of life, so when he heard Jinbe's words, he couldn't help but become curious.
"The Big Mom Pirates are a little different from other pirate groups. In Charlotte Lingling's kingdoms, there are various races living. These races live in harmony with each other and follow Charlotte Lingling's rules. rules."
"This pirate group is only interested in a few things."
"Devil fruits related to desserts or making desserts; delicious desserts."
"This group of pirates behaves relatively well."
"Transactions are also exchanges of equal value. Of course, the things they are interested in can only be provided to them first, otherwise they will be attacked by them. It is considered an exchange of equal value under the premise of forced buying and selling. Bar"
"And if the order they were promised is not delivered on time or there are even a few mistakes, they will show their true nature as pirates."
"A few years ago, a country famous for its baking was destroyed because it failed to supply enough bread within the agreed time."
"And the reason is that that country planned to pay heavenly money to seek asylum from the World Government. Many citizens were imprisoned because they could not pay the money. As a result, the number of people baking bread was greatly reduced, and the contract was missed."
Compared to other pirates in the new world, the Big Mom Pirates' style of conduct is obviously much more organized.
As long as the dessert factories protected by the Big Mom Pirates do their job well, their lives will not be in danger. Living among all nations is much safer than living on other islands.
Although Big Mom is moody, after understanding her temperament, she is still easier to get along with than the Celestial Dragons.
And the cadres of Wan Guo are much more sensible than CP.
I have to say, this is really ironic.
"What you mean by that, does Fishman Island also accept dessert orders from the Big Mom Pirates?"
"Their order requirements must be very demanding, right? The quantity is large, the construction period is short, and the price is low. It's hard not to accept it."
“When Fish-Man Island is not completed, it will threaten to destroy the country and bring you under its command, and then control the life and death of the people on Fish-Man Island, forcing fish-men and mermaids to become cheap labor for the Big Mom Pirates! "
"Yeah?"
Yixiao always speculates on pirates with the greatest malice. The ways of the Big Mom Pirates are nothing more than the same old tricks played by pirates. He had seen too many before he lost his sight.
Hearing Yixiao's words, Jinbei was stunned and asked with some confusion:
"Mr. Yixiao, why do you think so?"
"The price they gave should be pretty good, because King Neptune was very happy after signing the order with Cake Island."
"As for the date, it's not a problem. Although it's urgent, the pastry chef invited by King Neptune said the date himself, and he didn't object."
"My worry is not about the order or not, but whether King Neptune needs to decline the Big Mom Pirates' invitation."
"after all."
When Jinbei spoke, he carefully looked at Enichi Tsukuni's face. In his opinion, Enichi Jikuni is the kind of person who hates evil. If he knew that Fishman Island was behind his back to contact pirates in the new world, he didn't know what he would do.
At the banquet for Enichi Tsukuni, King Neptune did not say anything, but he also wanted Jinbei, one of Enichi Tsukuni's own, to get a feel for it first.
If Ji Kunoyuan has a strong will to oppose, then Fishman Island will not be too involved with the Big Mom Pirates, and after completing the order, the intersection will be reduced.
From Neptune's point of view, based on their position on Fish-Man Island, they can completely walk between Ji Kuni Enichi and the Big Mom Pirates. After all, there is no so-called "black" and "white" between these two parties. They are all wanted criminals, no one should look down on the other.
Moreover, Jiguo Enichi and Pirates are different. Jiguoyuan and Yumen Island do not have the concept of "territory". Their Fishman Island is highly autonomous.
Sensing Jinbei's gaze, Tsukikunoichi smiled and shook his head after a brief silence, and said casually:
"You do business, you do business. This is your freedom."
"And we also deal in desserts, not weapons and other things that may cause chaos."
"You can just decide for yourself about this kind of thing."
"As for the other party's tea party invitation, just go."
"It's better to let King Neptune make his own decision on this matter."
"However, don't blame me for not reminding you of some things. Pirates are pirates after all. In other people's territory, their lives are at stake."
Jiguo Yuanyi did not show any strong opposition to this matter. Just as Neptune thought, this was the internal affairs of their Fish-Man Island and had nothing to do with Jiguo Yuanyi.
As long as people's lives are not in danger and chaos is not caused, there is no reason for Jiguo Enichi to interfere in other matters.
"Well"
"I will tell King Neptune and ask him to pay attention to his own safety when he goes."
When Jinbei heard what Tsukuni Enichi said, he smiled and nodded.
When Yixiao heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "Jinbei, from what you say, don't you plan to go?"
Jinbei shook his head when he heard this and asked naturally, "Why should I go?"
"I am different from King Neptune and his wife, I am the new navy!"
As he spoke, a smile appeared on Jinbei's face, and several people in the office also smiled after hearing Jinbei's words.
"Bulu Bulu——"
And at this moment, there was a sudden buzzing sound from the phone in Jiguo Yuanyi's arms.
As soon as Ji Guoyuan took out the phone bug from his arms, he glanced at the phone bug's appearance, and his expression immediately became serious.
He did not shy away from Yixiao and Mihawk and the others. He motioned for Yixiao and others to be quiet, and then directly answered the phone without answering the phone.
After the call was connected, a male voice with a lowered voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Number 9527."
"The Navy Headquarters intends to make you and your subordinates the Shichibukai."
After saying a brief sentence, a busy tone came from the phone worm's receiver.
Ji Guoyuan put the phone bug into his arms with a thoughtful look on his face.
In the office of the Chief of the Criminal Investigation Section of the Navy Headquarters, Tianzheng locked a phone bug into the drawer next to his desk, picked up the pen again, and dealt with the documents on hand in a decent manner.
